RabbitMQ - v3.9.25

RabbitMQ 3.9.25 is a maintenance release in the 3.9.x release series.

Please refer to the Upgrading to 3.9 section from v3.9.0 release notes if upgrading from a version prior to 3.9.0.

This release requires at least Erlang 24.2, and supports Erlang 25. RabbitMQ and Erlang/OTP Compatibility Matrix has more details on Erlang version requirements for RabbitMQ.

Minimum Supported Erlang Version

Erlang 23 support has reached its end of support.

Starting with this release, RabbitMQ requires Erlang 24.2 or later versions. Nodes will fail to start on older Erlang releases.

CLI Tools

Bug Fixes

• rabbitmq-diagnostics status now handles server responses where free disk space
  is not yet computed. This is the case with nodes early in the boot process.

  GitHub issue: #6303

Management Plugin

Bug Fixes

• Management UI links now include "noopener" and "noreferrer" attributes to protect
  them against reverse tabnabbing.
  Note that since management UI only includes a small number of external links to trusted resources,
  reverse tabnabbing is unlikely to affect most users. However, it can show up in security scanner results
  and become an issue in environments where a modified version of RabbitMQ is offered as a service.

Shovel Plugin

Bug Fixes

• Plugin could stop in environments where no static Shovels were defined and a specific
  sequence of events happens at the same time.

  GitHub issue: #6286

Windows Installer

Bug Fixes

• When installation directory was overridden, the plugins directory did not respect the
  updated base installation path.
